🚨Fake giveaway? Don’t fall for it!
Scammers love to promise free prizes. Here’s how to protect yourself:
1. Stop if they rush you or ask for money or personal details.
2. Check the offer on the official website or verified social media page.
3. Don’t click strange links or download files you don’t know.
4. Never share your password, PIN or OTP with anyone.
5. Remember: real prizes never ask you to pay a fee.

Sometimes, it is good to Relax, Reflect, and Recharge.
Watch the highlights from our Youth Digital Watch Cell Care and Meet in Hola, Tana River County last week. A big gratitude to the DDISA for their kind support.

On Tuesday, we brought together the Tana River Youth Digital Watch Cell in Hola to Recharge, Reflect, and Refine.
During the session, we reflected on the progress made and ways to improve the NetSafi platform for the future; and awarded the best performing members.
What happens when a community has the tools to lead the fight against misinformation?
Today, through our NetSafi project, we brought together 54 participants in Hola, Tana River County, for a community digital literacy training on how to identify misinformation.

I have enjoyed every single moment conducting this study. This is the second time collecting data in West Pokot County, and every time we get interesting perspectives. 🙏
Highlights from our field data collection in West Pokot County for our study on "Democracy Without Representation? Understanding Youth Distrust of Political Parties in Kenya."
At Policy Action Initiative, we are redefining participatory action research.
This week, we pitched camp in West Pokot County as we conduct our study on "Democracy Without Representation: Understanding Youth Distrust of Political Parties."
During our data collection, we went to locations in Kapenguria, Kacheliba, and Alale sub counties.
Last week, we joined participants from across the food systems community at the Africa Food Systems Forum in Kigali. We are grateful to everyone who took their time to visit the Exhibition booths and engage with our research studies and Tukuze Shambani project.
